Here's my review of Dune: Spice Wars that has 'Nickelodeon' art style, no introduction in any form once player launches the game, leader characters with no voice & shai-hulud with zero threat. Also more mindboggling things that are missing from it's 10-15€ misspriced Early Access release. This bad release led to refund & i know many who did the same. As a dedicated Arrakis gaming, telly, cinema & literature fan since early -90's the wait of 15+ years to end like this is very disappointing. Yes Shiro Games can still turn this around & make No Man's Sky touchdown if they understand to make workshop available & then their own crew to keep supporting the development with right changes & additions. Features like: Singleplayer campaign (even if it would come in parts), bigger map, more feeling of conflict, less cartoony graphics esp. for grimmy House Harkonnen. Mod that changes Liet Kynes to form it's meant to be by late talented Frank Herbert will be most downloaded mod in no time. Also no doubt that good modders out there waiting to give us proper looking map & more good content ^^ I wish good rest of May month to everyone & remember to buy Dune Books & keep streaming latest Dune movie via HBO Max so WB knows that it's supported. It surely helps with sign of support to 'Sisterhood of Dune' series that comes to HBO Max maybe early next year. Long dream of New Arrakis game is swept away.. for now at least.

Yeah it's kinda weird & shame really esp. when knowing that 'Dune 2 - The Maker' project has zoom in & out feature with Rat Wheel. Surely it could be added into Dune 2K GruntMods Edition that uses way newer tech. Once that's available then it's playable with high ress & no need to watch all the time Ants Colony going wild in Planet Arrakis ^^. Zoom in & out brings nice dose of immersion so also cause of it that's a nice feature to have. Here's to hoping for it to be added sooner than later Kindly: Arrakis gamer since early -90's o/

Game reviews by IGN are uber giggidy & can't be called as such. Gamers who wanna watch reviews should always go for those that aren't most known by the general search. Two good sites i recommend: https://www.gameinformer.com/ & https://www.pcgamesn.com/

Good to know. Excellent & Magnificientoo ^^ Sharing it around wicked wide web. Take care & good May month after today o/

That must be a bug cause rat pointer & selecting has been working for over a month. I play short sessions two to three times a week ^^ Stefan prob. checks this for you soon when time is ready.

^^ That is an opinion as the final stand for everything is in the eye of the beholder. Since long ago i've bought & read some others than orig. from F.H. in paper & ebook format. Included ebooks decade plus later. Noticed that all aren't same grip hold quality as they are, but still have plenty good parts & worth the read. Totally recommend for everyone who dwelves into worlds of Arrakis, Giedi Prime, Caladan & other celestial bodies written into this beautiful IP One good reason among others is that purchases support & carries it further. Good readings, viewings, gaming & sharing excellent word about Dune Universe to everyone o/

It sure is handy at times. We became buds first time about couple decades ago when good evenings, some night-times in sp mode & lan gaming

@Klofkac Thanks, that's good to know Hope that adding all the content from the mentioned package to Dune2k Gruntmods Edition's root folder fixes the things i mention here: Three errors blocking the good times. Take care, share good word about Movie & other Arrakis content o/ UPDATE: Got it to work earlier this evening & with fullscreen mode after it first launched in small res at top left corner. Toggled on that cutscene box at launcher so it went back to Fullscreen mode as did first time when installed few days ago. Prev. it stopped working all of sudden & gave that 'your gpu doesn't support ..' error pop up. Hope it doesn't happen this time after couple days. Waiting for zoom in & out feature to be added & rat buttons to be reversed so they match today's controls. I'll happily support also via small monthly donation once they arrive. Also important to mod cutscene vol settings so that audio won't rise into stratosphere when they're played. That tends to happen & it's no fun. Wish good week to all o/

@Klofkac Howdies. I'm asking here if this exe update would solve my weird game launch probs. that hasn't got assist yet on it's own thread. I've read through your first post on this thread, but didn't gather it up from there. I mean the answer to this question. So can i use this "dune2000-sp-patches_2021-09-13.7z" with Gruntmods Edition 1.6.2.5 ? Good week o/ Kindly: Fedaygin

Update to latest error that's also shown on zip pack above ^^ The one that claims my 6gb Phoenix OC Edition Gpu not good enough to run Dune 2000 So today i tried to run it with Win 7&8 compatibility mode & at both times screen went black with no audio. Tried many geeky tricks from the sleeve that know of. Couldn't get rid of it even with t.manager (to end process through that) cause black screen overwrote it as in stayed as top window (which is very rare for any client). Then eventually was able to logout to desktop login screen via first page of t.manager & luckily didn't have important projs. active & in unsaved state. Still don't get it why this gruntmods edition now says that my "gpu doesn't support the required modes, please open the D2K config prog. & change your resolution" <-- There's no residual files in 'appdata or user -> local' folders after recent uninstall that could cause this prob. I'll see if launches like normal later this evening. I've tried all possible settings via launcher as mentioned already above. -

Same error pop up here as well ^^ It was & is the orig. campaign that i tried yesterday evening when popped first time & still today after tried all settings on launcher :/ Strange cause i didn't change any other files except the ones that came with Nobles Coalition zip package. Earlier today noticed that can play orig. campaign & dlc missions made by Gruntmod crew when launch via 'Mission launcher'. That error pops only when try normie campaign route, not via M.Launcher. I uninstalled today & reinstalled hour after. Now have second error blocking the good times in Dune 2000 RTS. It's about claiming that client doesn't support the chosen res. It does cause 2x days ago i played with 1920*1080 that i've selected at launcher. Was there some exe patch that need to apply after installed 1.6.2.5 Gruntmods Edition ? Once that's out of the way & client works longer than two days then gonna set up celebration fireworks ^^ My OS is Win10 Home x64 & have 16gb 2400mhz Ram. 1.6.2.5 Dune 2k Gruntmods Edition is installed to 2TB Sabrent Rocket Q M.2 drive. Three images on that uploaded folder. Good rest of the year to everyone. Pst: Remember to watch Villeneuve's (Cinema Art Genius) Dune in Cinema, stream it after on HBO Max, give positive review & share good word about it o/ We Arrakis Dwellers can impact big time on 2nd part's Arrival (Arrival good one from Villeneuve btw), New Arrakis Univ. Games & planned Series called: Dune: The Sisterhood. Arrakis Forever.zip -
I'll write here rather than create new topic since one made about Super Dune II =) I receive this error pop up when click the install exe that unpacked from the zip file. That zip folder has 3x files inside. They are: File_id.diz, install.exe & readme.txt. I was going to install it there & then proceed with following install instructions on readme file. My OS: Win10 Home x64.

How to get this 1.07 patch ? Nothing happens when i click the 'Download The Dune 2 v. 1.07 fix. on this page: Download 1.07 Patch. Only get redirected back to same page & no download inc. :/

@stefanhendriks Thanks for info about few things. Good to know that i'm not only one with some of these additions & change that improves gameplay with big steps. "Combined with a proper options menu so you can change that easily." <-- That would be very good, but also to just add only add 'today's' rat controls scheme which is that commands from right & selection with left I'll take a look at github link & join to discord once brewed Hot Ginger Tea ^^ Weird policy here about adding reactions like upvote, like etc. Sometimes even after twenty four hours i still get pop up saying that "sorry, you cannot add any more reactions today" :o Good weekend, coding (if you code) & until next time o/

Wonder why this happens when click 'mount' with Win10's own V.Ddrive feature :/ UPDATE: Re downloaded the discs & then was able to mount em. Question: Why didn't the install phase ask for other discs ? I mounted Disc1, set the install path, chose the components & it finished without asking others.
